Mariners Win Final Game On Road

The Seattle Mariners began the road trip
splitting four games against the LA Angels,
however, had a terrible time in Detroit
losing two out of three to the Tigers then
losing the first two games against Cleveland.
Saturday's game should have been a win
before the bullpen blew it. Anyway they 
came back to win 6-2 on Sunday.

The Mariners for the second time were 
able to get to Shane Bieber while  Logan
Gilbert had another good outing. The 
way he is pitching his future is bright.
Gilbert has a fine fastball however he is
now able to throw the change up especially
against lefties while throwing the slider
and curve as well. 

Gilbert was able to go six and two-thirds
innings giving up one run on four hits,
one walk and six strikeouts. Gilbert didn't
give up a run until the sixth inning which
is a very good sign as well. The Mariners
were ahead 5-0 at the time.

Lefty Anthony Misiewicz came in to finish
the seventh inning. His best time on the
mound is getting one out in an inning.
Drew Steckenrider went in an inning
followed by Kendall Graveman who
gave up a run. Graveman just came off
the injured list so may give him a few
outings to get things back in order. 

The first inning the Mariners lost 
Mitch Haniger with a ball he hit off
a knee and had to leave the game.
Jake Fraley taking his spot hit a
two-run in the fourth inning. This
was the Mariners second home run
of the day with Kyle Seager having
one in the third inning. Haniger right
now is listed day to day so likely
won't see him in the lineup on Monday
but we hope back in on Tuesday.
I wouldn't be surprised when he
is back in the lineup he will be at
dh to begin with.

JP Crawford had three hits in the game
along with Kyle Seager. Crawford is
looking outstanding right now. The 
Mariners had 13 hits on the day. Only
Shed Long Jr didn't have a hit on the
day. 

Marco Gonzales will start the next 
homestand starting on Monday. We 
hope to see good things at home after
going 4-6 on the road.  They will
face the Minnesota Twins three times,
Tampa Bay four and two against the
Colorado at home. Go M's.
